ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for providing proper electrical contact between corresponding interconnect pads of a print cartridge and a print carriage are disclosed. A flexible insulating tape with interconnect pads is supported by an elastomeric compensator that has columns with hemispherical domes on the side of the elastomeric compensator facing the tape and a flat surface on the other side. The flat surface of the elastomeric compensator is supported by a gimbal plate which, in turn, is supported by a spring.
